Myself and a few others on Reddit seem to be having a catastrophic issue since the patch. After the patch installs the game won't launch, the executable loads to memory using 59Mb of RAM and then just sits idle (waited 10+ minutes and it refuses to load, despite the fact the .exe is running). Using Repair game didn't fix it, reboot, etc doesn't fix it. Game was loading fine yesterday and this morning before I installed the patch. You may want to not download the patch and play in offline mode to be safe... who knows how long this will take to fix  |

I'm on PC, and the game loaded just fine for me. Not sure what the deal is, tbh.

This is the sort of stuff where devs make hotfixes where they only fix a miniscule problem. It happens. |

Ok so I will be sure to copy game install to other drive for backup when I get home. One reason I prefer to patch my games myself and have actual copies of patches. Makes fixing things much easier.

Could the OP provide hardware specs of said PC? Driver issue? Can't be a driver issue I have latest nvidia drivers - the same ones I had yesterday and this morning when the game was loading fine before the patch. Intel Core i5-3570 GTX 1050TI 4gb 8gb ram Again, it can't be hardware - I've been playing the game since launch without issue - it was only after the patch installed that the game refuses to start. |

I didn't have any problem with the update itself. But, the game would not connect online for the first hour after the update.

Try using an older version of the Nvidia drivers.
This happened to me in WoW a couple of drivers back on my 1070, reverting to a prior version fixed it.
May be a driver issue.
I updated to the newest Nvidia drivers, then WoW updated and would no longer load.

What is your PC specs, GPU driver, Windows version? Maybe there is a common denominator.

I would go into the documents/bioware/mass effect andromeda/ folder and try moving all of those folders and their files on to the desktop. Launch the game and move them back afterwards. This will obviously make it seem like your saves are gone while the folders are away, but in case there's some config files in there somewhere that might affect whether your game boots properly.

One more thought: Try going into GeForce Exeprience and reset your graphics settings to default/optimized (just in case the patch changed something in settings).

This will obviously make it seem like your saves are gone while the folders are away, but in case there's some config files in there somewhere that might affect whether your game boots properly. This actually worked (I deleted everything but the save folders). It seems the patch broke my settings (I suspect the settings file got broken somehow by the patch since that's the only other real file there). Game loaded fine, thanks for the tip. Though now I have a considerable annoyance that even with Subtitles turned off, they show up no matter what.. (I hate subtitles, i find them distracting)... why must they break such a goddamn simple feature? Now I'll be waiting weeks before they fix the damn subtitles being stuck on.. ugh. Also, not a fan of those hideous new "NUM1, NUM2, NUM3" bloody texts next to each dialogue choice, makes the UI look ugly and like it's from an alpha stage of the game or something. |

I can launch the game, but I still regret installing the patch because they fucked up the dialog wheel. Edit: Apparently this can be disabled. I'll try that! I no longer regret installing the patch. They also fixed the issue where all my keyboard prompts were in French. |

Before I could alt-tab normally, after this patch the game goes into windowed mode if I do that. Only reapplying settings fixes it. Until I alt-tab again.
Am I missing something?
